[QUOTE="Flyliner, post: 1089491, member: 28965"]I live across the street from the ocean! So I have the exact opposite problem as you. I got a bit of rust on a gun a while back, then set up the Golden Rod and Stack-On, and no rust anywhere since. So I'm pretty confident my approach to humidity control is working. Do you then keep the ammo boxes in a safe? When I originally bought the safe it had a bit of a "new safe smell", which I attribute to the new carpeting, fireproofing, etc.. This odor has since gone, I don't smell it at all now. So maybe the safe has off-gassed it all, I dunno. What about keeping the coins/albums in food safe mylar zip top bags? Made from polyester resin, they create an oxygen barrier. Drop a packet of desiccant in it and it should be good to go, no?
